All I ever heard from you was "I'm sorry"Sorry for not giving what you felt was importantFelt I needed to know more about your pastYou said what you saw in the mirror was broken

I saw fragments of light reflecting off your shattered piecesCasting vibrant colors far more beautiful than it would have if it was wholeBut all you did was scatter them across the sky like shrapnelYou took my rise leaving only the sunsets over the shore lineLeft me in the dark of your shadow hanging over meMy vision is not ready to adjust to this

And when you walked away for the final timeYou were still very much present with what you left behindI never understood the emptiness I felt watching you leaveAs you recede off into the distance becoming another day gone byThe way unexplained beauty lingers long after it has leftI think back only of the final moments spent basking under your glow

There is an unsatisfied hunger stirring in my gutWith most things of unexplained beautyI always felt so empty when you leftI never told you how I truly felt
